i am not an expert (or even a novice) in content production but i can whip your ass in development and marketing. stick to what you know. on the other stuff, stfu.

ps. post my site copy again. it was great for sales.

pss. hope all is well in cz.
No one agrees because they all went down the same road. Getting them to admit it isn't working today is a long shot. Even when it obviously isn't.

The number of customers isn't infinite. Especially when the main way of billing them is via credit cards. So the more people dipping into the trough of customers the less there is to share.

Once Tubes hit the market it was again obvious traffic wasn't king, sign ups were and then content because traffic will go to where the most content is and the best selection of it is. To achieve that in the world post Tubes the adult Internet has to completely re-think it's strategy. Yet it hasn't it keeps going down the same route.

So getting people to admit it isn't working is hopeless. They would rather use red herrings like illegal and stolen. When it's painfully obvious THE ONLY REASON TUBES EXIST AND TAKE THE TRAFFIC is because customers prefer them and the cost of BW makes it affordable.

My fields of expertise are Fashion Design, Selling, porn and BUSINESS. As I've been self employed for 22 years and run a business as a sideline for 33 years. This is without the years I had a market stall and was self employed. That was way back.

There are many better porn shooters than me, but they lacked the skills to run a business and didn't make the money I made.

Your expertise in marketing is telling newbies it's easy to open a paysite and once they do it, they will make money.

Actually debate what I said and don't just come up with empty statements. Tell me why it's still working. Why making opening a paysite and making money is easy. Why making the entry level to opening a paysite is the best route. Why making it easy to be an affiliate is the best route. Why throwing 100,000s of images and minutes at surfers for free is good marketing. For the business not for the few.
